Axillary lymph node status is the most important pathological determinant of prognosis in early breast cancer. However, axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) performed for pathological assessment is not without costs and morbidity. Recently, radioisotope-guided sentinel node biopsy (SNB) has been proposed as a promising technique for staging breast cancer patients.
